If 5% ofthose observations were due to the statistical significant level, then only 3.2% of score sets werenon-normal.A range of +/- 1.5σ on a normal distribution should flag a maximum of 13.4% of the scores inthe course as potential outliers. This is a large enough percentage to minimize the risk of falsenegatives. However, it could easily flag more scores than could be reviewed in a large course.The standard deviation multiplier value could be further increased to reduce the number offlagged outliers. However, this would also increase the number of true outliers that goundetected, violating SC1. Instead, three additional conditions were added to reduce the numberof flagged scores and to satisfy SC2.First

ideal setting for the advancement of physical activity (Keating, et al., 2005; Huang, et al., 22003). To this end, researchers have suggested a greater effort on the part of college faculty andadministration to increase student awareness of the benefits of physical activity and offer moreprograms designed to get students active (Lowry, et al., 2000; Keating, et al., 2005; Kwan, et al.,2012). Among the goals of the American College Health Association’s Healthy Campus 2020initiative is for colleges to “create social and physical environments that promote good health forall” (2010, p. 1).
